- Less than 100
- Between 100 and 500
- Between 500 and 1,000
- More than 1,000
- I’m not sure, I’ll check back on Thursday!
Answer: More than 10,00. In addition to responding to all those calls for service and making traffic stops, there were also 1,021 odd/even enforcement tickets written last year.
The City of Wyoming’s odd/even parking takes affect Dec. 1. It is enforceable from midnight to 7 p.m. Cars are to be parked on the even numbered addresses on even numbered calendar days. On odd number days, residents may park in front of the odd number addresses. Those in cul-de-sacs may only park on the street on even numbered calendar days. Streets with “No Parking,” signs will continue to have no parking restrictions.
The odd/even parking is designed to allow the city’s snow plow trucks to be able to clear the streets after a snowfall.
